Indeed, it isn't at all. I'm sure it can be fixed in the LMS software though. I have about 5 DAC's in the house and they all respond the same. Is there some place on this forum for feature requests or issues?

I'm hoping someone might have an idea about a setting on this and chime in.

I don't think it can be fixed in LMS as this depends on the PCM stream sent to a DAC - this seems to be a player / decoder issue.

For LMS to insert some extra data in the stream to the player between a hires stream and a low res stream - what should format of data should be inserted if hires is Flac and low-res is MP3 ? There are so many formats combinations - it doesn't look to be easily implemented in LMS.

edit

An example of something similar is the "-D" option in squeezelite to add delay between switching between PCM and DSD

That's an exceptional thing to do for a support service, but for RME even more. And no, this is a slightly different issue. The other one could be reproduced by burning the flac to CD, play it on a BluRay player via HDMI. It had something to do with a pregap imprinted into the wav or flac (in hex view, right after the data block you'd see actual zero's, which were translated as digital silence. The RME has no problem with this and keeps its connection synced, the other one stopped for a moment).

I think I'll ask that daiyama user if he can test the current 'issue' for me.

This is not uncommon, some DACs take an age to sync (my supernait DAC was one of them). My marantz a/v amp on the other hand will switch and lock between 16/44 and full blown dts-hd master streams before you've noticed it's done so..

The lowest rsync delay value works (50ms). I played keyboard parts with that kinda latency in 2000, wouldn't call it 'ages'. A lower value would work too, I guess but that wasn't an option. When switching to another track in a different bitrate you're doing something odd anyway, so waiting a few ms is no problem.
